Julie Haas

Julie A. Haas, 71, Marshfield, died peacefully Thursday, Oct. 16, at the Marshfield Medical Center in the presence of her family.

A funeral service for Julie was held at 10 a.m. Wednesday, Oct. 22 at Good Shepherd Lutheran Church. Pastor Katie Anderson officiated. Burial followed at St. John Cemetery in Riplinger. The family invited relatives and friends to the church for visitation from 8:30 a.m. until the time of the service.

Julie was born April 25, 1954, in Menominee to Charles and Ruth (Anderson) Peterson. She was the first of 15 children born to that couple. She married the late Jay Block in 1976 — together they brought two daughters, Jayna and Jacqueline, into the world. She later married Ronald Haas Nov. 4, 1995, in Dorchester.

Julie was gifted in arts and crafts. She enjoyed creating cards, cake decorating, and took much pleasure in quilting. She loved to travel, had an eye for antiques, and enjoyed staying at old Victorian bed and breakfasts. Julie enjoyed the simple pleasures of life, music, and nature. Above all, she treasured her family.

She is lovingly survived by her husband, Ron; her father, Charles; and her daughters, Jacqueline (Robin) Block of Mosinee, and Jayna Block of Appleton. She is further survived by her siblings: Deb (the late Lance) Dahl, Mike (Bev) Peterson, Larry (Carol) Peterson, Pat (Roger) Hamus, Cindy (Russel) Hamus, David (Leta) Peterson, Dale (Chris) Peterson, Darla Peterson, Kevin (Stacey) Peterson, Kenny (Amy) Peterson, Jamie (Nikki) Peterson, and Chucky (Carrie) Peterson.

Julie was preceded in death by her mother, Ruth; and two siblings: Mark (Aud) Peterson and Char (George) Velon.
